Congratulations Alexis Velasco and Adrian Estrella for your 3rd place win (which came with a $200 cash prize) in the NatGeo/MERITO "Tales of Exploration" Competition, which included 68 student teams from around Ventura County. Alexis and Adrian combined photojournalism with ecological fieldwork in the Channel Islands, studying how humans have impacted symbiotic relationships between species on Santa Cruz Island.
